against their most vital interests,
while it is obvious that the sole
object of such a man or set of men
is either to secure Office or to make
himself or themselves "solid" in
Office under the present admins
tration.
Mr.. Martin offered the following,
which was also adopted:
Whereas, this association, hav-
ing learned with pleasure that the
Republicans of the city and coun-
ty of Alexandria, Va, through
their delegates in convention as.
sembled at Arlington Sept. IA, 'S7,
nominated l.. W, Corbett, Esq,
of the city of Alexandria, as their
candidate for the house of dele
gates therefore be it
Resolved, That this association
most heartily indorse the action of
said convention in nominating
so able, worthy, and influential a
gentleman for the lower branch of
The general assembly of Virginia,
and will use every honorable effort
to secure his election.
After the adoption of the above
resolutions grand banquet was
held and the many who were p.es.
rnt had delightful time. Stewart
NJ. Lewis, the alleged colored dem
ocrat was present, but the speech,
es of the boys heated him so that he
was compelled to make a quick exit.

revolver was drawn, and witness
called to Savoy to "look out"
Brown denied that he drew the
revolver first, and asserted that
Sprlggs ran away. Savoy had
threatened witness lite, saying
that he would never reach the
Sumner building. Witness had
been frequently warned.
John Toler testified as to Savoy
coming to the building and that
he asked Brown if he would do
as he (Savoy) requested. Mr..
Brown said that if be was at fault
he would, and Savoy threatened
him that if he did not, he would
not go back to the Sumner build
ing again.
The defendant Savoy again took
the stand and testified that he
never carried weapon, and that
the threats meant that he would
use all his means to keep Brown
out of the public schools, for he
was not fit to be over other peo-
ple's daughters.
THE DEFENDANT UNDER BONDS.
The court said that the evidence
was somewhat contradictory, and
directed that the defendant give
bonds in $500 to keep the peace
for six months.
The same scandal has involved
a number of other people Indirect
ly. The charges made by w. G.
Chase against school Trustee Hen
ry johnson had relative to this
matter. Mr., Chase wrote letter
to the Commissioners alleging
that Trustee johnson had clrcu-
lated charges against Brown
which were malicious and false.
The charge referred to was the
one after ward investigated by the
school board.-Etening Star.

THE SCHOOL SCANDAL.

There arenone more interested in
the public schools than we are. We
nave watched them with much
anxiety and hoped that all tie dis
turbing dement's had been re.
moved In the "Evening Star OF
lsst Tuesday we noticed in the re-
polt Of the Savoy-Brown affair that
the editor Of this paper wrote TO
the Commissioners that the charges
against Mr.. Ellis w. Brown and
Miss Anna Savoy we're false and
malicious. We still assert that SO
far as we are informed by all par
ties interested that there was nc
criminal intimacy between the par.
ties. The assertion is not only
substantiated by Mr.. Brown, but
by Mrs. Savoy the mother OF the
young lady. If there is anything
at all, Mr.. Brown, we are informed,
promised to marry Miss Savoy, and

OUR CJLORED MILITIA.

On all occasions our colored com
NAMES escort our white brother TO
the depot when they are going &
way or GO and meet them on their
return. We have failed yet to see
any of these white companies es~
cort any Cf our colo'ed companies
on their leiurn home. We think
it is about time that such todyiSm
is stopped. We have some OF the
finest military companies in this
CITY that can be found anywhere,
aud commanded by educated gel.
tlemen OF ofrespectability. Now gen.
tlemen, unless a similar compliment
is returned, we are of the opinion
that your courtesies toward these

The old republican war horse,
Hon. John A. Hyman, nj. G. from
the End congressional district of
North Carolina, yielding to the So
licitations of his numerous friends
in his district and state, will leave
this city at an early day for lis
home in WarrentOn, n. c., where
he will reside in the future. The
republicans of the "Tar heel State''
may feel congratulated upon the
return of MIR. Hyman to his home,
as his work while member of the
44th congress speaks for itself.
1t certainly would be a graceful
thing for his former constituents to
send Mr.. HymaD back to
Congress to again represent their
interests in the national Legislature
which have not been as we'll looked
after as they were when Mr.. Hy-
man was the representative. We
can say without contradiction that
Mr.. Hyman had more cOlored peo-
pie appointed to positions than any
two representatives from the South.
He takes a special pride in looking
after the interest of his people.
Return him to Congress.

ot Portsmouth, Va, was introduc
ed and made ID most eloquent and
Logical address. He said that
Senator MaLo G had been mislt d

w. c. Martin, secretary of the
executive committee, offered the
following resolutions, which were
unanimously adoR'ed:
Whereas We, tho members of
the Virginia Republican Associa
ton, composed of voters Of Virgin
ia temporarily residing i'll the Dis
tIirt of Columbia, having read with
much interest and deep concern
the address recently promulgated
by the state executive committee,
through its able chairman. Gen.
William Malone therefore be it
Resolved, /. That this associa.
tion most heartily indorse said adj
dress and the fearless and truthful
arraignment the maladm;niStra-
tration of aft airs by the Democracy
since its accession to power In the
state.
2. That this association recog-
nize in Gen. Malone the true lead
er of the Republican party of Vir-
ginia, and the most faithful friend
to the best interests of the com
monwealth, as exemphfied by his
wise and judicious course in the
United States Senate, where, as
shown by the record, he accom-
plished more for the material wei.
fare Of the state during his six
years service than had been done
by all of his Democratic predeces.

8. That we advise the people OF

or elsewhere to influence voters

after she had gotten ready and re-
signed her position in the school,
he backed out. This is the only
charge of which we have any
knowledge. Suppose the lady had
been ruined or had met with a
misfortune, was it right for Henry
johnson, member OF the board OF
school trustees, 10 have exposed it
to the press? While we believe in
purifying the public schools, there
is way TO do it.
Similar cases occur in the white
schools, we are told, but the white
trustees allow the parties
10 resign without prejudice to them
srlvcs or injury to the schools.
Why couldn't Mr.. Johnson have
done the same thing? No, he
wanted to pose as a m)raliSt. IL
it is true that Mr.. Brown promised
to marry Miss Savoy, or that he
has iI.jGJed her in any way, he
shCuii be removed from the schools;
Oh the other hand if he is not gull
ty of any such act, he should be
let alone. 1t will be remembered
that after an investigating com.
mittee had been appointed to i'll
vestigate the charges alleged 10
have been made against Mr.. Brown,
the lady WAS requested to appear
before the committee, but she de-
cllned, hence the committee could do
nothing but VXDnerate Mr.. Brown.
We regret the affair and hope that
matters like this will be disposed If
i'll some other way.
Some OF JohnSOn'S friends are
Inclined 10 believe that his case has
been strengthened. What johnson
is gully of is the publicity that he
gave to the press before the matter
was investigated, not only that,
Out in the case Of Mrs. A. U. Wad-
dleton, after having requested the
ladys resignation, he didn't want
the board TO accept it. The best
IIllDS tudJ OcllliSul Cslu wv Is ~
take a rest, because he will never
be reappointed Oh the school board
as long as he lives. We still as
sert that 10 charges have been
made against Principal Blown.
Mr.. Johnson admitted that himself
when the committee OH investiga-
ton made its report. If Mr.. John.
son knew that these things were
true uhy did be not object to the
adoption of The report? Why
did he recommend Mr.. Browns
reappointment? We would like
10 know who is to blame? Mr..
Brown appeared before the com
mittee to answer the charge, but
no one came to substantiate them.
We have no desire TO defend either
Brown oDMiss Savoy, but we do
say If Mr.. Brown was innocent
when the committee reported, he
was innocent at the time he was
assaulted. We dismiss the matter
from our columns.

SUMMERS WINES AND
TEAS.
ARNOLD BURGES JOHNSON IN THE SEP
TENDER COSMOPOLITAN.

His wines were curious and val
liable. Most cf them had been ac-
cumulated at sales made by for
eign ministers when breaking up
their households to return from
Washington to their own countries
or at sales made by those whose
knowledge and taste had enabled
them to have the best. Among
them were three bottles, each hav-
ing hung on its neck in the Sena
tors handwriting the following.
"Malaga, 800 years DID," These
were reserved from the sale and
sent to his invalid sister, Mrs.
Hastings, in Califo MIA.
His teas be had accumulated
mewhat in the same way. He
would order through his frienIs in
the East India trade the smalles
possible original packets ..of kind
Mt known to commerce, the diff
ficulty of getting which was far be
yond their cost; and travelil g
friends In the diplomatic service
would send him little packets OF
the rare and strange teas that they
found abroad. At the famous din-
ners he gave the Joint High Com
mission, he served them with the
famous Mandarin tea, which, like
the wine of Tokey, is regarded as
an imperial present. The Coun ess
de Grey recognized it. She had
tasted it in Buckingham Palace
when the Queen entertained royal
personages. 1t had been brought
to Mr.. Sumner by Mr.. Fox, ASSIST
ant Sec'ty of the Navy, who OBJ
tanned it in Russia when he visited
that country with out fleet of lion
clads.

OPPOSED TO EDUCATION

The efforts of the enemies of the
Colored University to prevent the
erection of its buildings at Mont
gomery are revolutionary and un-
wise. Their action is revolutionary
because the University has be n
located and its bui ding planned
for In due course of law under the
provisions ofa special statute. Un-
wise because the premises upon
which said opposition is based are
simply shallow, hollow protects
seized upon by unreasoning preju-
dice to accomplish Its ends.
The enemies of the University
base the opposition ON the object
ionable utterances of Editor Duke
But the colored people, of Mont
gomery In ccmmJn with the mas
ses every where and the Voice OF
the colored press almost unani-
mously, have spurned the sentis-
ments attributed to Duke, and pro-
tested against being held RESPONSE
ble for them.
There is no more ju- -tice or rea-
son then in opposing the Univer-
slty because of Duke than in hold
ing the whole race responsible for
the incendlaly teaching of the ex-
treme socialistic leaders and wri-
ters, whose doctrins have caused
widespread death and destruction
to manifold peaceful b. me and fire
side. -HuntsuiUs Gazette.
